YES, such a decision of the executive service is valid.

In accordance with Article 70 of the Law of Ukraine "On Executive Proceedings", the total amount of all deductions during each payment of wages, in the case of collecting alimony for minor children, cannot exceed 70 percent. In case of collection of alimony for adult children - 50 percent.
